Old Fortress

Bitter darkness all around

Laughing at my loneliness

I can see through these grey bars

And the light is fading out

From far away voices call me

Reminding me of the life I once had

And again, I have to face my plight

Make me strong on this lonely night

Between the sea and the sky

I can find hope and still see the light

Echoes of the life that I did have

My hope springs eternal and will not die

These dreams refuse to fade to black

Alone in my solitude

A prisoner of lies

Innocent? No one cares

Yet again, the truth ignored

Does it matter? Should I care?

What is not, what is not fair?

From far away voices call me

Reminding me of my former life

Dry the tears that wash you from my mind

And regain what was once mine

Between the sea and the sky

I can find hope and still see the light

Echoes of the life that I did have

My hope springs eternal and will not die

These dreams refuse to fade to black

Alone in my solitude

Between two lives

Who's there? Jailer with no face

Who's there? Free me from this place

What am I? Am I still a man?

Dear God hear my plea

Set me free from this lie

Between the sea and the sky

I can find hope and still see the light

Echoes of the life that I did have

My hope springs eternal and will not die

These dreams refuse to fade to black

Alone in my solitude

Between two lives

Between the sea and the sky

I can find hope and still see the light

Echoes of the life that I did have

My hope springs eternal and will not die

These dreams refuse to fade to black

Alone in my solitude

Prisoner of lies
